title: Synthesis of a phosphine imide bearing a hydrosilane moiety, and its water-driven reduction to a phosphine.
abstract: Organosilanes bearing a phosphine imide moiety were synthesized and crystallographically characterized. Reaction of the pentacoordinated hydrodiphenylsilyl derivative with water gave [2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl]diphenylsilanol accompanied by both reduction of the phosphine imide moiety and hydrolytic oxidation of the Si-H moiety.
